Bard

It means a storyteller. It is strong and masculine. Of course, I got it from William Shakespeare, his nickname was the bard. Also, it is the name of a heroic, dragon-slaying character in The Hobbit. So, with Shakespeare and The Hobbit, you can't go wrong!

Bard is an English surname meaning, appropriately enough, "a bard." Originally bards were a specific type of storyteller. In times when the general population was illiterate, noblemen kept bards on staff to compose poems to keep track of their deeds and commemorate their ancestors. Later on the word was used for any wandering musician or poet.
